Press Release - Thank you, Mr. President. And thank you Under-Secretary-General Lacroix and Special Envoy Tetteh for sharing UNISFA’s progress on mandate implementation and your updates on Abyei.
Thank you, Mr. President. And thank you Under-Secretary-General Lacroix and Special Envoy Tetteh for sharing UNISFA’s progress on mandate implementation and your updates on Abyei.
UNISFA peacekeepers are the only force that should operate in Abyei. We call on all armed groups to depart the region, and call on the Governments of Sudan and South Sudan to instruct their forces to evacuate Abyei. In addition to attacks against peacekeepers, UNISFA and the JBVMM continue to be the subject of misinformation campaigns. Over the past two years, the re-establishment of the JBVMM in Gok Machar has yet to come to fruition due to false reports that the JBVMM will declare the final border status.
Similarly, we urge the parties to the conflict in Sudan to ensure a safe environment for all JBVMM and UNISFA personnel by providing safe passage to UNISFA and the JBVMM, facilitating full and safe resupply, and ensuring freedom of movement for the JBVMM in Kadugli and the two team sites.There was a problem processing your submission.
